Description

In the fast-paced world of traditional healthcare, where time with patients in many medical practices is often limited to mere minutes, Dr. Kerry O'Connor stands out. In her recent interview with Dr. Frank Sabatino, she shared her commitment to providing personalized care and promoting lifestyle modifications, particularly emphasizing plant-based choices for optimal health. As part of a progressive group of physicians, Dr. O'Connor, a board-certified physician at Love.Life Telehealth, goes deep into the benefits and pitfalls of both traditional medicine and that of a remote practice. Love.Life Telehealth, an integrated health and wellness company, co-founded by NHA member and Love.Life’s CEO, Anthony Masiello, provides patient-centric medical care that’s outcome-driven, personalized, and dedicated to addressing whole body health. With licensed physicians practicing telehealth nationwide, Love.Life empowers patients to proactively improve their health by focusing on the root causes of chronic diseases and offering comprehensive solutions.  Consistency and Lifestyle Modifications Dr. O'Connor emphasizes the crucial role of consistency in lifestyle modifications. From the plant-curious to those well-versed in health programs, she guides patients to foundational changes, recognizing that small, consistent decisions pave the way for long-term success. Collaborating with Primary Care Physicians One intriguing aspect of Dr. O'Connor's practice is her collaboration with primary care physicians. She recommends that patients maintain their relationships with their primary care physicians, ensuring continuity of care. While some physicians may be resistant to lifestyle changes, Dr. O'Connor supports her patients in educating their healthcare providers about the benefits of holistic health practices.
